We stayed at Merrils I, 11/24/2011 for 11 nights. We had a great time. We had stayed at Merrils II in 2008, so we knew what to expect of the Merrils resorts. The buffets were really good fresh food served 3 meals a day. This time we were glad to see they had added jerk chicken, curried goat and callaloo... More

Spent some wonderful days just lying on the beach resting. The resort is perfect for this, a balcony to sit out on in the shady tropical garden and a wonderful beach. Plenty of rum drinks and great variety of fresh fruit and vegs. Being a lady on my own I was a bit wary, but the resort is very secure... More

The section of Negril was great, the beach was beautiful. Security did an outstanding job fending off the "beach vendors". Food was ok, had a lot of repeat and not a lot of selection, but was good. The bar was less than expected though, bartenders were NOT friendly and weren't always there, very little selection. Odd that they had no... More

Just returned from a week in Merrils 1 and although we had a great time there were a few disappointments with this hotel, rooms were spacious and clean, depending on time of shower you might have hot water. Staff friendly. Food was good but definitely not varied, ok you had fresh fruit and a salad bar that never really changed.... More

Upon booking, I went through LLC group out of Miami and did everything via email. Valarie and Diana were great and accommodating. The receptionist at Merrils I was friendly so I knew... More

The Staff very friendly and courteous meals great, however they need to upgrade the drinks served no premium beers and also they need to extend bar hours a later, bar closed at 10 pm now not good. This is not a great place... More

My husband and I spent our first wedding anniversary here. We checked in after leaving Khus Khus (read separate review) We had a tour and the same night we checked in. Loved the all-inclusive service as the food was well worth the money. They skimped a little on the drinks (used flavored fruit juices instead of the actual fruit.) Also... More
